Last year was something free that wasn't limited. It's like a smaller version of something they sell.

Our BF booty is more often what we don't need but it should go much deeper Such as buying upgrades of products you barely cracked open. Those sample libraries that you are now wondering what to delete or now shopping for external storage. Not to mention bits of hardware. Bought what you already have or have to do an extensive search to make sure. Who is going to be first so I know I'm not alone.

Ever notice most plugins in a DAW never win an eye candy award. I am always attracted to Live's 8bit look. All of those former Sony now Magix, I always want the GUI look like it was 20 years ago.

Hornet - no installer and bland GUI, I love software that is not pretty

Interesting the stuff I buy is not about need but if I like the developer. It's not always about quality.

EW - Plat Orchestra, free Voices of Passion Sonuscore the Score Essentials Toontack Dance EZX Trance Factory Vol.2 (29 IN 1 – Super Trance Bundle) Myloops Sonokinetic Maximo ???? Sure I left something out Those are BF not counting stuff bought in Nov. Let's not go there.

You win!!! Post of the week while the rest of us will be our post of the weak

You would be surprised. Many of them don't use any resources. When offline sometimes iLoks gives you a message and for it to go away just take out the dongle and put it back in.

I have quite a few of them and never really use them. Some might be surprise these functions are now in some DAWs.

Is seems once you installed their plugins you can delete the app. Plus you can download them. But once again the issue is lack of enduser freedom and not everyone is tech savy to resort to the above solution or want to. This has also been expressed on their forum.

no brainer as if in disk space doesn't matter

I avoid UAD because it's like a virus were you can't disable their app from startup. I still prefer developers who give options. It is handy if you have multiple systems and give you the option to archive without you having to copy an installed library. Install managers seem to be the apps most developers tinker with. NA just seems to cause problems for some users unlike their older one. Best Service install manager is the best. It's a zip file and doesn't stay on your system. IK rarely updates theirs and I never have issues. Arturia is great. You can keep their indivdual installers I prefer those that have more end user control

My concern is they ditch Kontakt like Orchestra Tools did and go with their own player with no option. That's like putting hubcaps on an exotic car. 8dio can lower their prices all day because they are not tied to the Kontakt player.

I wish they would do away with free. Instead offer something really low in price with smaller stuff like Ostinato Brass for $5. Last year I think the free offering was for everyone instead of those with superior bandwith.

It doesn't look like Sonokinetic is doing their 12 days sale. Last year it was advertised mid November. So I jumped on this one since you probably wont see that price.

2nd try or was it the 5th...got the code in email for such a half assed outfit their install manager is great

In the land of hoarding I got 3 libraries for less. I wanted Solstice but I need a place to put it.

https://audioplugin.deals/product/maximo-by-sonokinetic/ I don't think additional codes work on this,

Works for me. l also reinstalled SPLAT - vintage gear in the DAW world. I have hopes of the non dub option. My fanboyism ends with sub only. I guess our voices are small

UVI is also iLok

physical iLok which I prefer, or authorized on your system drive which is a hassle replacing a drive since you have to email every developer to reset authorization

https://www.ghosthack.de/Service/Free-Sample-Packs/Advent-Calendar-2025/ Always fulfills my sample hoarding.

only if you use iLok Cloud

not the same for sure...... not sure why anyone would pop $159 for a piano these days

Rumor has it they give you an extra is you contact support. I did this with their recent libraries.
